    CBC (Canadian) News fashion report: Tartan is "in" this year

    Gents,

    My wife is something of a fashionista, and we just enjoyed this recent video report from CBCnews.ca, covering the recent popularity of tartan in fashion this year.

    The report also features Canadian badboy Celtic fiddler Ashley MacIsaac.

    How about that, guys? We're "in" this year.

    oh Ashley.....what a guy. Anybody remember years ago when he was on Conan O'Brien? He played a great tune called "sleepy maggie" with fellow Cape Bretoner, Mary Jane Lammond. I'll never forget him jumping up into the air and doing this crazy "scissor kick" that let the entire viewing audience in on his "regimental" secret!

    Back on topic, it's nice to know that tartan is fashionable at least.

    I really like the fact that they refered to it as tartan more than refering to it as plaid.
